IN SUMMARY:

- the sales on ktown4u (as of now 260k) have already included the sales from cbars which are significantly lower than what we got during reload (500k in 2 weeks)
- people are putting high expectations on cbars which is bad since we only rely on them

- reaching half a million might be a little bit difficult to achieve this time around since the overall hype is great, but the effort is quite :/ if you can’t contribute in album sales, PLEASE pay attention on digital sales/streaming

- HOWEVER, as compared to reload, the sales are indeed lower (if we compare the period) BUT considering the fact that album details are NOT out yet the sales are still high

MY OPINION:

- i personally think we should not be too alarmed or discouraged since the preorder period for reload and hot sauce are different (2 weeks for reload & 5 weeks for hot sauce)
- i also think that once the album details drop, the sales will hike up again for sure

- and also, 260k preorders are only from one site which is ktown4u while 500k preorders for reload were the total sales from all sites combined. so i don’t know, we can’t say much for sure, just be prepared as cbars might not be pushing us as hard this time around
